"I like my sunlight", we discovered that, deep down, Mike is a Grass type
That’s why his favorite Pokémon is Sceptile
Mikey know sunny day
@@cristianordonez7976 I'm very sure it's castform
@@nt.yuk1 no, every true fan knows his favorite Pokémon is Sceptile
PHOTOSYNTHESIS
What I've gathered from this is that:
-Mikey doesn't like isolation
-Mikey likes going out in the evenings
-Mikey isn't a fan of cold areas
-Mikey REALLY likes his sunlight.
*photosynthesis*
True, no wonder why his starter Pokémon is also a Grass type (Sceptile)
He's 100% grass type extrovert
True
His Texan is showing lol
On a rewatch I just realized that 0:24 is possible. It’s literally canon that if a Fire type Pokemon loves you unconditionally their fire loses its ability to burn you.
That's only canon for Ponyta and Rapidash specifically. They said nothing about that for any of the other Fire types.
@@gengarzilla1685 Charizard toasting ash on the regular would suggest otherwise
@@CesarACastillo And that was before his attitude adjustment.
@@fictionfan0 he always liked ash just didn’t respect his weakness. Why else would he cry for him when Ash sacrificed himself to stop Mew and Mewtwo’s fight if he did not love him
@@CesarACastillo Well most Pokemon there didnt even knew Ash and yet still cried, it was a sad moment
For scenarios like these, I feel like the anime is the best source of how big these towns and cities can be, especially given the programming limitations he mentioned at the beginning. Also, it's been a somewhat popular theory that the tiny depictions of the towns in the games are because we are seeing them through the narrow world view of the player character, a child pokemon trainer. They would probably only perceive the more important locations and buildings for them: gyms for league badges, pokemon centers for healing, poke marts for buying health items and pokeballs. Plus a few other places for important items and npc info that is purely on the game side. Would also explain why, up until like gen 5, we never saw actual roads in these regions. Like, where did your moving van come from in gen 3? And how do any of these npcs travel to other locations without huffing it through the woods on foot for several days?
I'm sure there plenty of holes in this, but hey, it's just a theory.
Very true in the anime Cinnabar Island is incredibly huge despite looking small in the games
Then there's Unova Trainers who are teenagers and live near Pokemon's NYC.

Best line of the episode
Texas is a priceless vace and the snow is a big rock. You don’t often see a big rock in the fancy big house but your little brother brought in a big rock and through it at the vace. The vace is now broken
As a Texan I can confirm that Texas did in fact break.
XD
As another Texan, got dam it sure did
And here we are again ERCOT threatening to break the state again cause their grid can't keep up with the summer heat... lmao
They actually did something interesting for Sword and Shield. Chairman Rose is the head villain and most of the rest of the league representatives have to follow his command. Even Leon, the champion before the player, is given a lot of trouble for delaying or outright saying no to obeying corrupt orders. It was an interesting change from the typical evil team. But that does mean I'd be skeptical about living ANYWHERE in Galar.
I'm personally very glad that Geeta from Scarlet and Violet is not another corrupt executive repeat, because I thought Rose was a clunky and badly written villain. Pokémon needs to drop this twist villain rubbish because that bollocks doesn't work without good storytelling. It only works in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon.
@@gengarzilla1685Funny because people currently are making theories of just how Geeta is actually evil, which I am more 50/50 about it. 😅
@@gengarzilla1685 instead she's just incompetent
Rose isn't a villain, nor is he corrupt
Tbf, corrupt leaders screwing things up all the time is accurate to real life (source: i live in the uk)
For pacifidlog its worth noting that raft cities actually exist in real life and although you need to carefully prep for them ocean storms are not a major problem as there are plenty of countermeasures in place including ones that would not be visible to the player in the games which can be assumed to exist
Also to address his resource concern, it seems to be like maybe 5 miles from a major port (Slateport), so outside of really massive storms getting supplies there wouldn't be particularly difficult. Also another comment mentioned something I forgot, Sky Pillar is right next door, which houses Rayquaza, meaning Pacifilog probably only ever gets storms when both Rayquaza leaves the tower, and there happens to a storm on the way, so honestly they probably don't really have inclement weather, ever.
Seeing as the postgame ferry ship can go all the way from Slateport to Lilycove and back again, supplying Pacifidlog probably isn't too challenging for Slateport. I imagine these two settlements having some strong connections.
I've been to a raft city in Peru, and it's a hard pass from me.
@@blackmantis1511 TIL what "inclement" means. Now I know why they named that one hack "Inclement Emerald".
I think Pacifidlog & Cinnabar are among the _coolest_ & exotic Locations in the entire series. I mean, yes Cinnabar does get blown up lol - *but* ,,,

I'm curious what your thoughts are on towns from Scarlet and Violet. My vote on the worst town there (assuming the "Ice gym city" doesn't qualify since it's literally only a pokemon stand, gym, and one battle court) would have to be the Ghost type gym. Aside from the obvious "It's cold" and "it's up a mountain making supply routes questionable" arguments, the gym leader is a renown DJ that requires an opening act and a pre- and post- battle set every time a gym challenger challenges them. What if you don't want that EVERY NIGHT? Are you going to say something to them and either get humiliated in a rap battle or have your pokemon beaten up by a gym leader? On top of all that, those snow-covered peaks tower immediately over the town, and nobody is concerned about an avalanche (maybe, I don't know... a SOND INDUCED AVALANCHE?!)
I find your assessment of Montenevera quite on point. I may not know much about the dangers of avalanches, but having a somewhat LOUD sound-related gym up in the snowy mountains does seem a bit... questionable. Also, I'm not quite sure on the accessibility, as every time I've visited it has been climbing randomly over the snowy hills or flying to the nearest Pokestop, so I'm not sure if there's a walkable route you can use. There probably is something, though.
Also, while not nearly as bad, but I'd rather not live in Cascarrafa either. It may be a nice and rather blooming city, but the lowest part gets buffeted by sandstorms from the neighbouring Asado desert. Which does not seem pleasant.
@@SKuusk95 There is one long, snow covered path switch-backing up the mountain past many (to the average civilian) high leveled Pokémon. Concerns about accessibility are rather on point.
Fair point on Cascarrafa, but if Phoenix can make it work, I'm not surprised they can too. It's more "Irritating" bad than "potentially a hazard to life and wellbeing" bad.
You right
Most cities are pretty chill in Paldea
Montenevra is cold, hard to access, all those things mentioned
The psychic city might be hard to access from one side but the other side should be fine
Zapacito is kind of in the middle of nowhere but that isn’t inherently awful
Paldea has for the most part normal cities
You all make a good point but I wouldn’t like to live (near the giant glowing screens and battle stadium) in Levincia because of the glowing posters, as mentioned previously
Edit: They don’t seem to turn off, and I wouldn’t like to be randomly selected as Mr. Walks-About like Clavell did.
If I got a house away from all the chaos the Iono makes, I’d for sure live there
To be fair if you don't want to worry about the ladder problems in fortree city, you can always catch a pokemon nearby to help you cary groceries or keep away other pokemon.
I think having a tropius would help a lot since you can find them in the nearby route and they can also just fly you up the treehouse platforms and carry your stuff for you. Plus with their long necks, they would make a great lookout for any danger.
Or a spinarak/ariados, or a wingull/pelipper. Wingull are everywhere, it wouldn't exactly be hard to get a giant pelican to help carry your stuff.
Hell, I'm pretty sure you can get Slakoth/Vigoroth in the nearby routes
What if a fire breaks out..
Then specifically get yourself a Surskit and evolve it since Masquerain can hold onto all of Surskit's Water moves. Plus it flies and gets String Shot, great for helping lift your shopping up to your house.
@@petrosmixides2843 I doubt a fire is genuinely a threat considering it rains a lot

"Can you imagine a nincada on top of your face?"
*Stares in Australian with the giant spiders*

@@SteveDice21 that's a one big and phat bug
And that's when I'd start raising or attracting bird pokemon in this scenario.
@@jillianbailey7376 so you could fly away right? Because let me tell you that I was in Australia and I saw spiders the size of my hand and I’m Arachnophobic, I can’t even watch the scene of Harry Potter with the giant Spider’s without feeling uncomfortable, I can’t even beat the Zelda Twilight Princess Spider Boss without feeling sick, I’m pretty much Ron Weasley when it comes to Spiders. I don’t even have any Spider based Pokemon simply because Spiders are my Kryptonite
Edit: I shouldn’t have said that last part
"What if I was an accountant?" is funnier than it should have been.
As a new accounting major, it kills me! XD
Tiktok ruined that accupation for me
Funny thing is, even office workers in game have some pretty scary pokemons, like the colleagues double trainer battle in sword shield have a team of lucario, hippowdon, perrserker, and excadrill
@@wingbeltcreations5455 as an actual accountant, same :(
Sitting on the mountains accounting all day
I wouldn't see Po town as such a huge threat to my safety considering Team Skull are reformed by the end of the USUM storyline and they're incredibly loyal to Guzma and Plumeria so I highly doubt they'd go against their boss' orders to not start any trouble.
I still wouldn't want to live there.
Living in Po Town is like living in Detroit
I'd add Fallarbor Town to the list, personally, if only because of the constant volcanic ash in the next route over. I may not have any immediate respiratory problems, but I very much intend to keep it that way. I'd also like to point out that the area seems to get *all* the ash; to put it in perspective, Lavaridge Town is probably closer to Mt. Chimney, but gets more benefits (i.e. hot springs) with no nasty side effects.

also, about cinnabar island is LITERALLY surrounded by water, and its tiny. every time i walk there, i usually bump into the edge of the island, now in a video game, they wont let u fall into the sea, but in real life, i would rather not step outside of my house, take a couple of steps forward, and fall into the glitchy and haunted sea.
I know you didn't mention Circhester, but I feel like it also bears mentioning because it has a lot of similar issues to Snowpoint; it's always snowing, and the only ways to access it are by air, through the treacherous, half-frozen waters of Circhester Bay, or on foot over the rough, broken ruins of Route 8.
I’m surprised he didn’t mention Lavaridge town, it’s isolated and it’s literally right next to an active volacano
Honnen went on for to long most likely
The hot springs tho
I was thinking fallarbor or dewfird too. I think hoenn is just a rough region hahaha
Let me introduce you to the Philippines, where we actually live on volcanoes, hi
@@VanillaCreamPuff yes
Mikey: staying in the pokemon center? on a slab of nothing on the ocean?
Brock: I see this as an absolute win.

No. He would also want a police station
@@ancientbaltoy8769 the island is pretty small, I think Brock would be found trying to do 2 at the same time
But he’s a rock type gym leader.
You could say... It would be a *joy* for brock
I personally also think Lavaridge could be a pretty uncomfortable place to live. You don't see this visually in the games, but considering you're sandwiched between a Volcano and a route where it is constantly snowing ash....even just breathing in that area has gotta be hellish
Also, about Fortree City, the wooden bridges don’t have any handrails, so you’re literally one windy day away from falling to your death. Furthermore, if lightning strikes one of the trees (and that’s a very likely possibility given their size and how much it rains there), that’s bad enough but now the whole city has a chance of being destroyed in a wildfire.

@@endslayer5133 I meant in the 'anime variation' of Teleport there was the one D/P episode where the chick with an Abra used Teleport for Ash and the gang to get to Hearthome City.
What about fly
The thing about Lacunosa Town is that 1. They never show nor name someone who was taken and eaten recently and 2. Assuming you live there after the events of the BW and BW2 games, either way, Kyurem has canonically been captured.
Mikey: Grunty Boy, you know what? I want you to take this bar of Grapefruit IPA.
Subtitles: Crunchy Boy, you know what? I want you to take this bar of Grapefruit IPA.

You know it never occured to me that Po Town was forcibly taken over. I assumed that it was abandoned for whatever reason and then Team Skull took it over, denying it from its new legal owner. But I think offical lore allows either version
The Alola Region, Po Town, Team Skull.... Seems like Gamefreak really did their research. That's sounds alot like Waianae XD
@@thegreatbeavers I assume you mean Pu’uhonua o Waianae. That was the only thing about Waianae that resembles Po Town. And yeah, Po Town being a homeless encampment making the use of abandoned buildings makes sense. It also adds more depth to Team Skull's whole "we're only pretending to be evil" thing and would be consistent with Plumeria's characterization in Masters. It's just a mess because Team Skull aren't going to be that competent of community organizers. Also while Po comes from Hawaiian for darkness and Pu'uhonua means refugee, their first syllables are very similar.
I think Team Skull might *be* the locals.
@@SixArmedSweater That would also be consistent with Hawaii. Buying a house there as a local is very hard, as most property is owned by people from out of state as their second vacation home or as companies running another tourist geared business. A resort goes up instead of a neighborhood. A hotel goes up instead of an apartment building. So a bunch of locals pretending to be tough without the logistical knowledge to do a well run off the grid community taking over a failed resort fits.
Po town is literally living at Rio de janeiro in brazil,i dont live in there i live in like Vilhena rondonia(if you never heard of it thats ok pretty much the only thing this town is known for is probably being a footnote in a book) and its so different no cap
“I live in Texas, it snowed here, and it broke!”
Too true
While you're merely weak in the cold, I live in South Dakota, so I'm used to it, so if you want to get used to the snow, come up here
Funnily enough I live in Texas and love whenever it does get cold! I hate how hot and muggy it is down here. I told my family that once I feel I’m ready I want to move further up north.
@@stargazer99 cold is one thing, snow is another. I live on an island in tropical climate. If it ever snows here, the world is ending.
I miss when it actually snowed here in Texas, snowed enough where it didn't screw us over but wasn't just 2cm of snow for a few days
@@legendpybro5016 agreed
The Under in Pokémon Colosseum was really cool to visit but was underground, run by Cipher, and met its end before the sequel. Maybe good for a cautious visit or waiting till the postgame period.
You mentioned SO many Hoenn towns already but Fallarbor town is covered in ash to the point that everyone is suffocating and Lavaridge is super inaccessable. Only able to get to it by fly or through the cable car then traveling town a super steep volcanic ridge.
“What is the local government doing in this town?”
I felt that.
Probably vacationing at PKMN equivalent of Bahama's!
Giant Chasm is also dangerous area to explore since a legendary dragon/ice type monstrous dragon pokemon is said to resides on that area and is said to eat people and pokemons at nighttime.
Probably working on a new repel like a super ultra repel

Blackthorn City having a fairly safe exit at least helps. In emergencies they can evacuate down the mountain even if returning is slower and more difficult.
Let’s not forget Pacifidlog town, least for the old games, didn’t have any “shallow water” areas so you can assume Sharpedo, Tentacruel, even Wailmer would be happily stopping by the city. Imagine just walking across some planks to go to the Pokémon Center and a Sharpedo helps you meet your demise.
Remember than Team Yell is literally just Spikemuth's residents geared up for the league season. It's also the only city with a possible stripclub.
Is that the place that only serves chicken strips?

I love that Grunty Boy has this ongoing lore across every sponsorship
@Griffin Calder even if grunty boi is in a advertisement I still will skip

He got Grimer stench on Michael.
9:24 That’s not to mention the sinking effect demonstrated in the games is caused by a pre-teen. I’m quite thin for my age but the average pre-teen would almost definitely way more than me. An adult trying to walk on the rafts would likely sink to or past their ankles, and considering the rafts are made of bound logs, an uneven surface, there’s a significant risk of slipping.
Your sponsorship skits are so creative and fun! 😂
"I'm gonna assume that the towns have a realistic number of buildings and houses
And that they don't all face the same way"
Hilarious observation we've all subconsciously thought about
Mikey: Talks about Hoenn
Lavaridge city which is literally a volcano: am I a joke to you.

He lives in texas he is used to that weather
With Pacifidlog town. The most pressing issue is supply, but storms actually aren't as bad as you'd think, there are real world towns that are built out of reeds including the 'ground' they float on. It is not the best place for most people to live as you can imagine and so this town is still very remote and a supply shortage would lead to the death of the populace. It's just the storms aren't nearly as bad as you originally mentioned, still a great video, good job.
11:16 This is actually one of the few times I think the anime had a better anime equivalent to the games. The anime made Ever Grande City an actual city, with buildings and people actually living there.
It baffles me to this day that ORAS didn't give the city a complete makeover( A.k.a. an actual city) like they did with Mauville City. It would be understandable if the reason Ever Grande City was underdeveloped then originally planned due to the GBA's limited power at the time. But no, it was just like that all along!

Yeah, team skull may not be the biggest, flashiest or most threatening villains you come across in the games, but they have arguably made more progress than most of the other teams by completely taking over Po town.
A feat that’s arguably only equaled by team yell with Spikemuth, and only really surpassed long term by Team Rocket / Rainbow Rocket. Mainly because by the time you show up and give them what for in the generation one games, they’ve already established themselves as ma massive organised crime syndicate, that had enough going for it that they keep coming back after each consecutive smack down they get. (Yes they basically have nostalgia and plot armour on their side, but that’s besides the point)
The Pearl Settlement in the Hisui region (the predecessor of Snowpoint City) doesn't seems that bad for me.....they at least seems to have several hot springs that would help to make the snow and cold a bit bearable 🙂
At the time of Hisui, I'd say that every place except Jubilife Village would be undesirable to live in. The whole region is basically still untamed.

Even so, I would probably chill there if I couldn’t afford rent in Celadon or Goldenrod lol
When I first played the Gen 2 remakes and reached Cinnibar Island, my first thought was to pray that the people living on the island were able to completely evacuate.
in summary: Michael loves his sunshine, and he is always worried about his food supplies.
Paldea (based on Mikey's parameters):
- Montenevera (permananent snow and too cold for Mikey)
- Alfornada (really isolated, only available via a cave system while other side is a downwards waterfall)
Kitakami (based on Mikey's parameters):
none (there's only one settlement and while isolated it does have a connecting bus service)

I think this was the first video I've ever liked in my 14 years of using TH-cam, SPECIFICALLY because of the paid ad. That was well done and I watched it all the way through because I was entertained. Well done
8:22
I could imagine just waking up and seeing a shiny wurmple crawling in through the window.
Fortree city must be the shiny bug type hunter paradise
I always saw Po town as an abandoned town that nobody was living in, so the people in team skull who were obviously doing it rough all moved in as a giant family. There are pretty much only two competent people in the whole organisation, so I can’t imagine them being able to take over an entire populated town without the intervention of the police.
You have a point, but it's also specifically stated that the police do not care what happens there. Nanu tells you outright that if you die, you die, and he's not going in for your body. Of course, we know Team Skull is pretty harmless, but we play as immigrants from Kanto, an arguably more dangerous region. Our trainer is never afraid of them.
@@siaskies1704 This. Nanu: "Can get pretty rough here at night."
Player: *Shows Kanto ID.*
2 hours later Player is sitting in Guzma's chair.
2 days later Player defeats Necroma.
3 days later Player is first Alolan champion.
Yes, the average Team Skull member is incompetent, but they still have Pokémon. I can actually see then shunting unarmed civilians out of this town.
@@gengarzilla1685 yea but most average citizens in the pokemon world also have pokemon, they're just not trainers. they have them as pets, but they would still know some moves
team skull didn't force anyone out po town was abandoned BEFORE they moved in
Here's how to get to blackthorn without pokemon.
1. Get a military cargo plane
2. Trave to sky dive heights
3. Yeet yourself out of the plane
4. Enjoy the dragon infested town of isolation.
17:44 personally the whole zone is a massive nope from me I’m allergic to heat and even been in the UK it gets too warm for me (granted my bedroom regularly exceeds 30c and in a heatwave can hit 40+c) my preferred place to live would actually be someplace like winterspring from world of Warcraft (for any that have not played wow the zone has a purple sky to it that you get from almost dry snow storms, you could almost call it cosy snow) I can’t say I’ve seen a place like this in the Pokemon games but ied be setting up home there if I found one.
MandJTV: The only TH-camr in existence who makes his sponsor sections actually fun to watch
What about ryan george he literally threatened his cousin one point to be more stereotypical
Hot take:
Correction, one of the few
Raiden from Playerinside. If you're not italian you can't understand lol
Noodles (hes an animator)
You forgot to mention there’s either a powerful whale or a weird lava creature inside of Sootopolis that can literally make you drown or get buried alive at any second.
Just swim lol
I think groudon is supposed to be a salamander kinda like vah rudania in Botw
@@bryanlemmens68 Groudon actually lives in Mount Chimney, Kyogre lives off in some cavern a short distance away (Emerald)
you mean Kyogre or Groudon????
@@Alphapkmn
Yeah, Sootopolis is just where they go to battle
Following the Emerald story, Kyogre is still in the Seafloor Cavern as they both are in Ruby, Sapphire and ORAS, and Groudon is in the Jagged Pass (?) going up to Mt. Chimney, where the Magma Base was built
I could easily live somewhere that is surrounded by water. I grow up on an island in British Columbia, Canada where a third of the meat I ate came from the ocean and the other two thirds of the meat I ate was locally sourced things like cows and birds like chickens, ducks, geese, nearly everything that was locally raised. As for non-meat products, it was all locally growing and farmed
It’s a good thing the Pokémon center in geosenge town managed to escape while the ultimate weapon was being released and then destroyed (literally it’s not there in the cutscene lol 😆)
Dr Squatch has never had a better ad than that shower scene
The worrying thing is how Michael had that image in his brain? Was he in the shower with him?
Lol tru
Trey Kennedy’s comes close but you’re right
@@dawnbelleini8036
Maybe that's why Grunty Boi said they were shower buddies.
False.... donut media
Mikey: "Im from Texas, it snowed, the whole country broke."
Tropical Countries: "You guys are getting snow?"
Texas is a state.
@@AustinSPTD1996 and is bigger than most of said countries.
As a person who has lived in Texas and in a tropical country, I can say that the heat in Texas during summer is a more extreme, but it does get colder during the winter. In the tropical country I live in now, heat doesn't get as extreme as it does in Texas during the summer, but instead it lasts pretty much all year long. The only difference is that half of the year it rains almost all the time, and half of the year it doesn't.
That being said, while I'm used to living in hot places, I really would love to be somewhere cold for a change. While I was in Texas winter was actually my favorite time of the year because it was colder.
Yessssss
Country?
"Would you still love me if I was a worm?"
Mikey: "What if I was an accountant!?" *starring into your soul*
In Hoenn, I'd also add Lavaridge Town. Sure, it's an exotic hot springs location but it's extremely hard to get to: you have to take a cable car all the way up to Mt. Chimney and then navigate your way through the Jagged Pass to get there. The only other path is Route 112 but it's a one-way route away from the town. There's even a hiker struggling with a dilemma to either get to Mauville easily but then having to deal with the difficulty of getting back to Lavaridge.
Okay so we know where Mikey wouldn't want to live.
Now I'd like to see 13 places he WOULD like to live. Although Mikey is a Hoenn baby, I'm willing to bet that a lot of places high on his list, would be in Alola. Because he likes his photosynthesis.
Alola is my favorite region and hence I have a lot of places to recommend for him.
@@MariOmor1 You're from sinnoh.
Pretty sure a lot of people would have Lumiose City or Nimbasa City as their top pick for obvious reasons.
@@anurodhpathak9725 I actually would have to pick Anistar City or Shalour City. One has the stunning gem that allows mega evolution and would make for great r and r spot, the other is a nice coastal town with the tower of mastery. Plus in the anime Shalour looks HELLA nice. And its close to reflection cave. I like living in an area that has geographic diversity. Its why I love Arizona. You have the desert sure. But flagstaff is a 4 hour drive from Tucson or two hour drive from phoenix and is home to the grand canyon and one of the largest ponderosa pine forest in the world. For unova yeah nimbasa is too busy for me I'd go with Aspertia city. Can get there by boat, so it has the coast and the mountains where you can see all of unova.
@@anurodhpathak9725 The music? Yeah.
Michael in Fortree: Do you mean to tell me that Nincada just crawl into your house at night?!
Fortree residents: No, no, no… they live underground. Spinarak, though …
I’d imagine Cascoon being a real pain to deal with. Wurmple seem innocent enough, but Cascoon and Dustox come with a vengeance.
Id love to wake up to one. Maybe not necessarily on my face, but Id still love it.
Omg! I think living in Pacifidlog Town sounds amazing! I've always dreamed about living on a houseboat or on a ship.
(I actually planned on living and working on a ship for a year or something, but before I could apply covid came and ... well ...)
Being near water (preferable where I can swim) (and the closer the better) is my number one condition when moving.
07:57 have you ever heard about a backpack? It's the invention that allows you to carry object without using your hands.
As the name may suggest - it's a pack that's worn on your back.
Quite handy.
I love how no one has ever mentioned the fact that in alola the second island has an active volcano, so there’s always the risk for the whole island becoming destroyed
Yeah and they also have a trial there
The Tapus can supress or redirect any volcanic activity. Koko to control the volcanic lightning and push away smog, Fini to cool the lava, Bulu to plant new growth, Lele to heal anyone hurt by the volcano.
@@sieragagne532 oh really, I didn't know that
@@sieragagne532 The thing is that i would prefer to detonate a nuke on the island before being helped by the OU meta itself, and as far as i know, they stick to their islands so lele could help, but only lele and that still does not remove the actual danger of a volcanic eruption: ash and toxic vapors
@@zirzeus2645 Plus the Tapu are said to be super fickle, so there's no telling whether they would even help if something did happen
I might be in danger of getting eaten by a frozen dragon monster
- Mikey 2021
Good one
As someone from a place where it does snow, most of the snow melts and either runs off into rivers or is absorbed into the ground.
17:18 its funny you said that because I would love to see more environment alternating stories in pokemon
As for Geosenge town, I think they should make it so during the Looker quest from the postgame, they start fixing the city, and then after it’s ended, it’s fully repaired
Maybe in the remakes
@@voidtectonic so gen 12?
@@antimatterg
Nah more like gen 15. Gen 12 is when we get the Black and White remakes.
@@Krow_YTAOS no. We get remakes in the generation double the og games generation. Discounting red and blue, since it would be weird to get remakes 1 generation after the originals

Ah my mistake. I was mostly over exaggerating how long the remake would take but I do see your point.
"I live in Texas, it snowed here, and the whole state... broke."
-Micheal Zinzalin Goth
I was literally gasping for 5 minutes when he said this.
i lived in dallas as a child. before that, i lived in chicago (and later moved back to 🥶)
back in chicago, my community was fairly religious (jewish). in religious jewish day schools, weather meant nothing and they'd make you tredge through the snow because we're _that_ obsessed with learning. high school was worse. if you had an english paper to turn in or a presentation for one of your judaic classes, it didn't matter if the roads were closed. secular classes would _sometimes_ get cancelled, but that was usually due to the teachers not being jewish and the head rabbis felt it unfair to make them go through the same level of torture. 🤣
anyway, it turned out that dallas was very different. in 3rd grade, we got just over an inch and a half of snow one day and they closed the school. i think it might have been the first time i remember even having a snow day. people were scrambling to buy firewood before the roads closed and i s2g it was only like 30 degrees fahrenheit.
i miss you, dallas 😢
I actually live in texas and I too experienced the snow
and we here in canada just kind of laughed at them until we learned that their houses aren't built to handle winter and it was actually all pretty bad.
I can confirm it indeed broke.... For like an inch of snow, there was not a lot at all
I mean, if we take the anime into account, most towns and cities are relatively fleshed out with buildings other than what the games have
One place I would love to live is Pokétopia in Pokémon Battle Revolution. It could be a bit loud with the announcer all the time but hey, a big city full of all sorts of Pokémon themed buildings is neat.
